Bills' Stefon Diggs: Not at Bills' voluntary workouts
Rotowire
General manager Brandon Beane confirmed Diggs didn't report for the start of the Bills' offseason workout program Monday, according to Matt Parrino of New York Upstate.
It's important to note that these workouts are voluntary, but even Josh Allen is in attendance, and it's always notable when a potentially disgruntled star player chooses not to attend. Diggs has posted cryptic tweets this offseason after showing his frustration following the Bills' divisional-round loss to the Bengals in the playoffs last season. However, he just signed a four-year extension through 2027 with Buffalo last offseason. There's been no indication that the Bills plan to trade their star wideout.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Held in check Sunday
Rotowire
Diggs caught just four of 10 targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Bengals in the AFC divisional round.
Diggs was kept quiet as quarterback Josh Allen went without a touchdown pass for the first time since Week 9. Despite usually being Buffalo's most dangerous target, Diggs finished fourth on the team in receiving yards Sunday, even trailing rookie fifth-rounder Khalil Shakir. Although his season ends in disappointing fashion, Diggs turned in another monster campaign in 2022, posting at least 103 catches, 1,225 receiving yards and eight touchdowns for the third straight year since joining the Bills.

Rotowire
Diggs caught seven of nine targets for 114 yards in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Dolphins in the wild-card round.
Diggs enjoyed a big first half, with all seven of his catches coming prior to halftime. That total included a 52-yard bomb to set up Buffalo's opening touchdown early on. Even though he garnered just one look during the second half, Diggs still led the Bills in receiving yards and should remain a big factor as they advance to the AFC divisional round.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Returns to practice
Rotowire
Diggs (illness) returned to practice Friday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Diggs sat out Thursday's practice, but his ability to return the next day suggests his availability for Monday's game against the Bengals isn't in jeopardy. That notion won't be fully confirmed until the Bills release their final injury report Saturday, but Diggs was listed as a full participant Friday, so he's projected to play barring a setback.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Missing practice Thursday
Rotowire
Diggs won't practice Thursday due to an illness, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Bills head coach Sean McDermott told Getzenberg that he hopes to have the wideout back on the field later this week, but Diggs' status is now worth monitoring as Monday's game against the Bengals approaches. In his last outing in the Bills' Week 16 win over the Bears, Diggs caught both of his targets for a season-low 26 yards.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Underwhelming numbers in win
Rotowire
Diggs secured both targets for 26 yards in the Bills' 35-13 win over the Bears on Saturday.
Diggs endured a rough afternoon in the frigid conditions of Soldier Field, turning in his lowest reception and yardage totals of the season. Josh Allen spread the ball around to nine different players overall, helping to keep Diggs' numbers modest. The next opportunity for Diggs to bounce back comes in a Week 17 road showdown against the Bengals on Monday night, Jan. 2.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Disappoints on nine targets
Rotowire
Diggs recorded five receptions on nine targets for 60 yards in Saturday's 32-29 win over Miami.
Diggs led Buffalo with nine targets, though he managed only 6.7 yards per target. His biggest gain of the day came on a 20-yard catch early in the second quarter, but he was otherwise limited to short areas of the field. Diggs will remain the most consistent part of the Buffalo offense, which gives him a safe floor of production, but he has failed to reach 100 receiving yards in each of his last five games, and he's also reached 90 yards just once in that span.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Limited output in Week 14 win
Rotowire
Diggs caught three of five targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jets.
After being held to four yards in the first half, Diggs promptly broke free for a 31-yard gain on Buffalo's second play of the third quarter, but he added just one more catch for two yards after that. He's far from the only prominent wide receiver to struggle against the Sauce Gardner-led Jets secondary, so Diggs should bounce back in Week 15 against the Dolphins, who allowed seven catches for 74 yards to Buffalo's No. 1 receiver in Miami's Week 3 win. Sunday's output was the lowest of the season for Diggs in terms of both receptions and yardage.

Rotowire
Diggs secured seven of nine targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 24-10 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.
Diggs paced the Bills in receptions, receiving yards and targets, and he brought in one of Josh Allen's two eight-yard first-half scoring tosses.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Finds end zone again
Rotowire
Diggs caught eight of 15 targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 28-25 win over the Lions.
After struggling to make a mark in the first half, Diggs came up huge down the stretch, catching a five-yard TD pass with less than three minutes left in the fourth quarter before hauling in a 36-yard strike from Josh Allen with 23 seconds left to help set up Tyler Bass' game-winning field goal. Diggs now has nine touchdowns on the season, one short of his career high, and he's also on pace for personal bests in catches and receiving yards heading into a crucial Week 13 road tilt against the Patriots.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Salvages quiet day with TD
Rotowire
Diggs brought in four of five targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 31-23 win over the Browns on Sunday.
Diggs was frustrated through almost the entirety of the first half, even leading to a sideline conference with head coach Sean McDermott that was caught on camera. However, he secured a five-yard touchdown grab late in the second quarter to break the ice, and he went on to put together a reasonably productive second half relative to Allen's modest production overall. Diggs will aim for a more prolific effort in the same venue when the Bills return to Ford Field to tangle with the Lions on Thanksgiving afternoon.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Makes 12 catches in Week 10
Rotowire
Diggs caught 12 of 16 targets for 128 yards in Sunday's 33-30 overtime loss to the Vikings.
While Diggs' longest catch went for only 25 yards, he consistently got open on short and intermediate routes to help the Bills march down the field. Buffalo led 27-10 in the third quarter before momentum swung Minnesota's way, but Diggs still crossed the 100-yard threshold for the sixth time in nine games. It wouldn't be surprising to see a similar performance from Josh Allen's favorite target at home against Cleveland in Week 11.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Excels in tough matchup
Rotowire
Diggs corralled six of eight targets for 108 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Packers.
The matchup between Diggs and Jaire Alexander was highlighted prior to Sunday night's tilt, and the billing lived up to the hype after the two star players were locked in a heated verbal and physical battle from start to finish. Diggs got the last laugh after producing his third straight 100-plus yard performance with a touchdown in a victory for his squad. The 28-year-old now boasts a massive 55/764/7 line through seven games. Diggs is as good as WR1s come heading into a matchup against the Jets next Sunday.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: May face worthy adversary
Rotowire
Diggs will likely see some of his coverage against Green Bay's Jaire Alexander on Sunday night, Grace Heidinger of the Bills' official site reports. Said the receiver: "He's definitely a competitor, he's a guy that competes at a high level, he finishes play, he's fast," Diggs said on Alexander. "So going against corners, I see the best corner every week."
Alexander usually goes up against the opponent's best receiver, something everyone is expecting when the Bills meet the Packers in Week 8. While the matchup with the reeling Packers looks juicy for Diggs managers, this is something to keep in mind. Also, as much as Green Bay is struggling, the pass defense is ranked first in the NFL, while the run defense has getting gouged on a regular basis and ranks 27th. Diggs is nearly impossible to keep down, but we also wouldn't be surprised if this turns into one of his more modest days, especially if the heavily favored Bills jump out to a big lead.

Diggs will carry an elite 39-508-5 line into a Week 6 road showdown against the Chiefs.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Modest showing in Week 4 win
Rotowire
Diggs secured four of six targets for 62 yards in the Bills' 23-20 win over the Ravens on Sunday.
Diggs turned in a relatively quiet performance by his lofty standards, even though his reception, yardage and target totals all paced or co-led the Bills on the afternoon. The Ravens did a solid job containing Buffalo's normally potent air attack overall, so the lack of prolific numbers for Diggs wasn't exactly surprising. Despite the modest showing, Diggs still eclipsed the 60-yard mark for the fourth time in as many games this season, and he'll aim to boost his numbers back up across the board at the expense of the Steelers in a Week 5 home matchup.

Bills' Stefon Diggs: Good to go for Week 4
Rotowire
Diggs isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game in Baltimore.
Diggs' absence from the report confirms he was dealing with cramps rather than an injury when he missed some snaps in the second half of Sunday's loss in Miami. He finished the game with seven catches for 74 yards on 11 targets and 70 percent of snaps after piling up 270 yards and four touchdowns the first two weeks of the season. The Bills have taken Diggs off the field a decent amount this season, but mostly on run plays.
